Making sure homes are kept safe during the New Year period
Nobody should compromise on security, especially over Christmas. In a 2021 study by comparethemarket.com, more than 5,000 homes in London alone were burgled over the festive period. Clearly, security needs to be higher up on the priority list for businesses and homeowners alike. That’s where Security Lincs comes in.
With homes and offices empty over Christmas and New Year, we want to help our clients tighten up the latches and keep things safe, all with remote access. To help you out, we’ve got together a few top tips from the Security Lincs staff to make sure homes are safe over the festive period.
What are some of the best ways to keep your home safe?
Connect remotely with an app
Applications and remote access have been a revelation for the security industry. Security Lincs are all in on remote access. It is undeniably the future of keeping homes and offices triple-locked and watertight.
Our integrated Security Lincs app makes that process super simple with arming, disarming and image alerts on a regular basis. It doesn’t stop there - clients can also control various functions, such as lights, heating and CCTV. Hosted in world class secure data centres, Security Lincs also enable users to request and receive messages related to their property. And, for that extra layer of security, our systems can report to Alarm Receiving Centres (ARCs). All in all, the Security Lincs app leaves no stone unturned when it comes to security.
Wireless sensors
Here at Security Lincs, we understand that wireless sensors are a fantastic way to add another dimension to security. That’s why we’re proud to recommend our Wireless Miniature Contact with Shock Sensor as the optimum way to keep things safe. These state-of-the-art devices could transform all things security for both big and small premises. With super simple installations and easy collaboration with our app, our wireless sensors are a secure addition to any space - especially over Christmas and New Year.
Improving CCTV
A no-brainer, but one that could be make or break when it comes to safety. Enhancing video security is an implementation you and your clients need to stay safe all year round, especially going into the future. It’s also worth bearing in mind that, if a burglary does occur, CCTV security will play a crucial role in finding the culprits.
Keeping valuables out of view
Leaving bait out for a burglar is never a good idea. With so many expensive gadgets and devices being gifted over Christmas, it can be too easy to leave them in plain sight underneath the tree or near windows. Keeping them out of view from windows is a sure-fire way to immediately improve security.
Ultimately, staying safe over the Christmas period is all about being vigilant and ahead of the curve. Interested in taking some of our tips on board? Please don’t hesitate to get in touch with us today through our website - we would love to hear from you.
